RunRev Script Editor and Linux

[Alejandro Tejada]

Hi Peter,

Could you compare the requirements to run gEdit
and Python with these requirement of Rev?

Thanks in advance!

Requirements of Revolution for Linux Systems 
The minimal requirements for Revolution to run are: 

• Linux kernel 2.4 and above 
• glibc 2.2.4 and above 
• X11R5 and above 

Although impossible to test every existing Linux distribution, we are 
aiming to ensure that Revolution runs on as wide a variety of systems as 
possible. To achieve this, the engine has been implemented to have 
minimal direct dependencies on system software, and will gracefully 
degrade in feature set if it cannot find the libraries it needs. 
Generally any recent linux distribution including Gnome/GTK support will 
have the required libraries for full feature support – for example, 
Ubuntu 7 supports all these features (although alpha blended window 
shape support requires you to be running with 'Advance Desktop Effects' 
turned on). 

The following features have specific dependencies: 

Feature Requires 
Alpha-blended window shapes A 'composited' window 
manager (e.g. 'Advance Desktop 
Effects' turned on in Ubuntu 7) 
Complex Unicode scripts Pango 
Text rendering using anti-aliased TrueType fonts Xft 
Native file open and save dialogs GTK 
Native print and page setup dialogs GTK 
Video playback mplayer 
Audio playback esd
